Crowd Warnings for Disney World in February:
Crowds are moderate for most of the month. Presidents Week, however, is very busy - only slightly less crowded than Spring Break - so you'll definitely want to arrive early at the parks.
Thoughts on Early Entry - Every day, all four Disney World theme parks open 30 to 60 minutes prior to the general posted opening time for guests staying at the official Disney World resort hotels and select “Good Neighbor” hotels. This is a fantastic perk for those who qualify and is a great time to ride one or two popular rides. It is still a good idea for off-site guests to arrive prior to posted park opening time because the first hour of the day tends to be less crowded but you’ll also see crowds decrease for the last two (2) hours before closing.
Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend - February 22 - 26, 2024. The runDisney events definitely affect resort availability so book early. We also have next year’s dates: February 20 - 24, 2025.
